INSTRUCTION MANUAL
1. EDITION –JULY 2022
(ORIGINAL VERSION)
! IMPORTANT !
For correct operation, this GreenTec Scorpion 3-430 boom mower must be mounted on an approved vehicle
with an approved GreenTec attachment tool.
It is important that the operator is given both the instruction manual, spare parts book, and all other relevant
technical documentation for both the boom mower, attachment tool and vehicle before the machine is put
into use for the first time.
It is important that the operator fully understands the contents of the instruction material before using the
machine.
This instruction manual must accompany the machine and must always be available to the operator.
In case of later resale of the machine, all relevant technical documentation must be handed over to the new
owner.
The content of the instruction manual is based on information, standards, and regulations, valid at the time
of publication.
As our products are under continuous development and improvement, changes to the specifications may
occur.
If there is information that differs from the current machine, updated instructions can be found on our
webpage or by contacting GreenTec - Aftersales department at: [email protected]

workmanship.
GreenTec decides whether the remedy must be in the form of repair or replacement of the defective part(s).
If GreenTec chooses to repair the goods, the customer is obliged to deliver and collect the goods from a
workshop indicated by GreenTec, without GreenTec incurring costs in this context.
If GreenTec chooses to replace the defective part(s), customers must send the defective part(s) to GreenTec
without GreenTec incurring costs in this regard. Instead, GreenTec is entitled to supply replacement goods.
GreenTec's liability only applies to defects, in connection with the sold goods, which are indicated within 2
years from the delivery date.
GreenTec assumes no responsibility for defects that exceed what is stipulated in this provision. This applies
to losses resulting from such a deficiency, including loss of profit, lost earnings, and other financial loss.
1.5 USE WITH OTHER MANUFACTURES THAN GREENTEC
When installing other makes of attachment tools than GreenTec, a new risk
assessment of the equipment used must be submitted.
If the boom mower is fitted with an unapproved attachment tool, the basis for
risk assessment will no longer apply, and thereby the validity and guarantee
of the declaration of conformity.
It is every operator's own responsibility to risk assess this interconnection
before using the machine.
